Amanda was just about to text Sonny to see if he was still coming over when she heard a knock on her door. Amanda looked through the peephole to make sure it was Sonny, it was.

When she opened the door she said "I didn't think your were coming" Sonny walked in replying "I am sorry I am late the pizza place was busier than I thought it would be"

Sonny shut the door behind him and followed Amanda toward the kitchen.

"Pizza mans here" she said to Jesse who was sitting on the couch. "Uncle Sonny" Jesse said, running to hug Sonny. Amanda took the pizza from Sonny so he could fully hug Jesse. When he put Jesse down he asks "Where's Billie"

"She's asleep. We're one down already" Amanda replies as she puts the pizza on the counter.

"What? What a lightweight! I'll tell you what, Jesse. You and I, we're gonna get this party poppin, okay?" he said sitting down on the couch. Then blowing a party horn. Amanda covered her ears.

"I am sorry, sorry" Sonny said, forgetting that Billie was asleep.

"It's okay, it's okay" she said as she sat down in the chair.

When Sonny blew the party horn it woke up Billie and she started to cry. Amanda went to get up and go get her when Sonny said "I will go get her" Amanda looked at him and said "okay".

As he went to go get Billie, Jesse said "Mommy can we eat pizza now" Amanda smiled "Of course we can"

Jesse made her way to the table to sit down while Amanda walked to the kitchen. Amanda got 3 plates. 1 glass plate for Sonny and 2 plastic plates for the girls.

Sonny returned to the kitchen with Billie and put her in her highchair. Amanda put the plates on the table and put Billie plate on her high chair table. When Sonny saw there was no plate for her he asked "Where's your plate?"

She didn't want to tell him the real reason she wasn't eating so she lied "I've already ate"

Sonny was confused because she knew that he was coming with pizza. He was about to say something when Jesse asked "Uncle Sonny did you get Pepperoni?" Sonny turned his attention to Jesse "of course I did" he opened the box and it revealed a pepperoni pizza. Billie started clapping her hands which made everyone laugh.

Sonny got a slice for him and Jesse. While Amanda cut Billie's pizza into smaller pieces so it would be easier for her.


When they finished eating Amanda was helping Jesse find cartoons on the TV while Sonny got Billie out of her highchair. When they finally found cartoons that Jesse would watch she went to get the plates on the table. When she turned, the sight that greeted her took her breath away.

Sonny was walking around bouncing Billie who was slowly falling asleep. She didn't want Sonny to catch her staring at him so she got their plates from dinner so she could wash them.


As Amanda finished washing the dishes. Sonny took the now sleeping billie to her room to lay her down. When he got back he saw that Amanda was on the couch so he joined her. He sat down next to her but not so close they were touching. When the cartoons went to commercial Jesse threw a pillow at Sonny. Sonny turned to look at Jesse pretending to be mad. He went over to the chair and picked her up and ran around the apartment with her. After a few laps around the apartment he sat Jesse next to Amanda on the couch and started tickling her. When Jesse's laughs were starting to get loud Amanda said "I know that you're having fun but your sister is sleeping" Sonny and Jesse both turned to look at Amanda with sad faces "okay" they both replied sadly.

Sonny picked up Jesse and put her in the chair then covered her up with a blanket. Sonny sat back down beside of Amanda and they watched cartoons

Sonny started to think how perfect this evening was. He's been in love with Amanda for years. There had been times where he almost told her but never did. He didn't want to tell her and she did not feel the same way and that ruined their friendship. He couldn't imagine her not being in his life so he never told her

Sonny's thoughts were interrupted when the now sleeping Amanda touched his chest. Sonny grabbed the blanket that was beside him and covered her up. He made sure that Jesse was asleep then got the remote to change the channel.


After about 20 minutes he started to feel Amanda sture on his chest. When she fully woke up and realized she was laying on Sonny's chest she immediately got off him and started to apologize.

"Oh my God. I am so sorry" Sonny was confused.

"Amanda, Amanda, '' he said, trying to get her to stop apologizing. When she stopped he asked "Why are you apologizing?" Instead of answering she asked him "Are you okay?" Sonny was starting to get annoyed "yes i am fine. Now please tell me why you're apologizing?"

Amanda was about to get off the couch when Sonny put his hand on her leg. "Amanda, what's wrong?" he said softly.

She knew if she didn't tell him that he would just keep pushing. She also knew that if she lied then he would know so she decided she would just tell him.

" I am too heavy to be laying on anyone's chest. I know I was crushing you. I am so sorry." Sonny was shocked she would even say something like that. She got up off the couch. "Amanda" he said, trying to get her attention. She didn't face him. He got off the couch, grabbed her hand and walked her down the hall to the bathroom.

When they got to the mirror Sonny moved her to the body mirror that was in the corner of the bathroom. "Look at you, you're perfect. Your hair, your eyes, those lips. Your curves are in all the right places. Who doesn't want a beautiful woman laying on them." he said looking at her through the mirror.

Amanda was speechless. Over the years she has caught him staring at her but always thought he was deep in his thoughts. Sonny touched her shoulder to get her to turn and look at him when she turned to face him he asked "You didn't eat did you?" Amanda's head fell and shock her head no.

"Well you're gonna eat" he said as he walked out the bathroom towards the kitchen Amanda followed behind him.

"Do you want ham and cheese or just ham?" Amanda was going to tell him that she didn't need to eat, but thought better of it. "Your a guest I can fix my own." Sonny rolled his eyes. "Just ham?" he asked, ignoring her.

Amanda sighed "Ham and mayonnaise I can make it myself you know"

Sonny turned and looked at her "I know you can but so can I" Amanda gave up and walked over to the couch.

When Sonny finished making her sandwich he walked over to her and gave it to her. Amanda smiled and said "Thank you". Then he walked back to the kitchen to get her a glass of water.


When Amanda finished eating Sonny took her plate and empty glass to the kitchen. When he came back he sat on the couch.

Amanda felt Sonny staring at her so she turned to look at him. He was smiling. She couldn't help but to return the smile "what?" she asked.

"Can you lay back down with me please?" Amanda's smile faded. "You're not gonna hurt me. God, you could never hurt me."

Amanda looked at him and saw he was being serious. She slowly put her head on his chest. She heard a quiet "thank you" leave his lips which made her smile.


A few minutes had past when Amanda decided to ask a question about what he said earlier. "Sonny" she said softly, looking up at him.

"Yea" he replied, looking down to meet her eyes.

"Did you mean what you said earlier in the bathroom" Sonny smiled and stroked her cheek "Of course I meant it I would never lie to you like that" Amanda started to laugh.

"Is that your way of saying you would lie to me?" Sonny stopped stroking her cheek "Yea I would lie to you but only to keep you safe, but I didn't lie to you in the bathroom,okay?" he said in a serious tone. "Okay" she said laying her head back on his chest


Sonny tried moving his legs when he did Amanda jumped up and started apologizing thinking she had hurt him. "I am sorry, I told you I would hurt you." Sonny stood so he was now standing next to Amanda. "My legs were falling asleep and I was trying to move them. It wasn't you, you didn't hurt me." Amanda took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

"I am going to lay down on the couch" Amanda was confused. "Then you can lay on top of me. You won't hurt me." Amanda looked worried "It will be comfortable for both of us" Amanda stared at him for a few seconds then said "okay". Sonny smiled and layed down on the couch. Amanda put her legs in between Sonnys and slowly laid her head on his chest.


A few minutes goes by and she looks up at him. When Sonny feels her staring he looks down and sees her smiling and he couldn't help but smile back. Amanda took his hand that was resting on the back of the couch and said "can you rub my back?" Sonny's smile grew bigger "yes I can" he said as he started to rub her back.
